Chapter 380: History Changed
In the blink of an eye, it was February of the second year of Jingkang.
In the past year, the Jurchens swept through the northern part of the Central Plains like a stormy wave, and the fortified cities were reduced to powder under the hooves of the Jin soldiers.
The entire Great Song Dynasty is like a broken candle in the wind, which may be extinguished at any time. Even those who are loyal to the Great Song Dynasty such as Chen Yu also feel that the final situation will be a very tragic result.
For example, the boiling land cutting plan, the land north of the Yellow River was all assigned to the Jurchens.
Chen Yu is now very famous, and the biggest reason is that he stubbornly guarded Zhongshan Mansion, and even plucked back his own brother who was ordered by Zhao Huan to come to proclaim the edict.
Just like Zhang Xiaochun, who is now imprisoned in the clouds, his fame is only gained by resisting gold.
But even if he is as tough as Chen Yu, he never expected that the situation would be turned upside down in a blink of an eye.
On the same day, he received the news that Jin Bing was defeated by King Kang's army outside Bianliang City, and the whole person was stunned.
What about liars! King Kang is so good? He is a young man who has never experienced military affairs, and he can defeat the Jin army in a flat field battle compared to the big and small species, Yao Gu, Liu Yanqing and other battlefield veterans?
Chen Yu was skeptical about the great victory of Yingtian, the great victory of Chen Liu, and the great victory of Bianliang, as well as the Divine Blessing of the Mandate of Heaven and the Heaven-shaking Thunder.
Until he received the news, it was a large number of Jin soldiers coming north, and the soldiers had passed through the Daimyo's mansion. There were no endless carts of gold and silver grain in the army, and there were no tens of thousands of captives, and the Jin people were really retreating north. It was only at this time that Chen Yu believed the truth of the rumors.
But then he received an edict from Zhao Huan, and the person who conveyed the edict was too slow, so what could Chen Yu do?
He could only guard the city gate and not go out, not to meet with Zhao Gou, and not to let Zhao Gou enter Dingzhou City, before being promoted to Zhongshan Mansion, Zhongshan Mansion was called Dingzhou,
And if Zhao Gou's army can be killed here, it means that the entire Hebei has lost its territory, except for the Zhending Mansion that is still in the hands of the Jin people, it will all be recovered by Zhao Gou.
Not only Hebei Road, but also Hedong Road, at this time, all of them were inserted into the Song banner.
The Jin soldiers of Taiyuan Mansion patted their butts and ran away before the arrival of the coalition forces of Zhe Keqiu, Xu Huiyan, and Sun Ang. And Zong Ze was still going all out to rectify Wang Shan's department at that time.
The latter was beaten hard by Zong Ze's army, and then Zong Ze asked people to surrender, and he really surrendered.
Zong Ze is now dealing with Wang Shanjun's affairs.
In this case, Zhao Gou also began to move towards Zhending.
He didn't think that Jin Bing was really ready to fight him in Zhending Mansion, but the soldiers and horses in front of him were just as cautious. Strictly prevent the Jin army and the horse army from attacking sneak attacks.
In fact, Sticky Han really didn't want to fight in Zhending.
By the time Zhao Gou led the pro-army to Zhending, there was no soldier of the Jin people here.
The main forces of the Song army are all gathered here, and Yang Weizhong and Liu Zhengyan lead troops in Xiongzhou, which is hundreds of miles away.
But Zhao Gou didn't do that.
"Jin Yu traveled all the way, I don't know how much grain was stored in the warehouse, and the army entered Yanyun, and the food was not enough, and it was impossible to do it."
Now the canal cannot be called, and the grain of the Song army relies on logistics and local collection. However, in the past few years, the north has been either a military disaster or a man-made disaster, and the people's livelihood is very difficult, and Zhao Gou can't prepare enough military food in a short period of time.
Later generations mentioned the Xuanhe period, and the biggest memory is probably the Fangla Uprising in the south and the Xuanhe Northern Expedition in the north, but they don't know that after the Xuanhe Northern Expedition, the two roads in Hebei and Hedong Road. Gyeonggi, Jingdong Lianglu and other places also broke out a vigorous Xuanhe riot.
Because the Song Dynasty abused the people's power to launch the Xuanhe Northern Expedition, the prison quota was too much, and the natural disasters - when Hebei and Shandong transferred grain to Yanshan, the people were exhausted, and the prison quota was collected, coupled with the fierce famine for many years, so the starvation soldiers and thieves - led to a series of civil uprisings in Shandong, Hebei and other places.
There are Zhang Wanxian in Shandong, and the number is up to 100,000; and those who were dish, numbering to 50,000; There are Gaotuo Mountain in Hebei, with a number of 300,000; There are more than 20,000 or 30,000 people, such as Linyi Wuhu, Yunzhou Li Tai, Yizhou Xu Jin, etc.
The people of Hebei have long been exhausted, and there are Jin people raging, that is, when retreating, they burned grain along the way, and now Zhao Gou's hundreds of thousands of troops are vibrating, and it is really not true that they can raise good food and salary.
When Zhao Buqi heard the news that Zhao Gou had a rest of the army, he was immediately happy.
Although it is also one of his great wishes to recover Yanyun, and now that the Song army has the upper hand, it is really possible to recover the land of the sixteen states if he enters Yanyun in one go. But the dangers cannot be ignored.
The issue of military rations is a key point, and it is definitely a major shortcoming of Zhao Goujun.
Once there is a shortage of military rations when Yan Yun fights, and Zhao Gou is also defeated, it will really shake the world.
Zhao Butry is not a fool, Zong Ze and Huang Qianshan will consider the problem, and he will also think in his heart. But it is very clear that once he fails, how heavy the blow will be to Zhao Gou.
Now that Zhao Gou suddenly stopped the horse's hooves, although this can't drive out the Jin Yu in one go, and push Zhao Gou's momentum to a higher level, it is also the safest way.
"True, true......"
In the pond garden, Zhao Gou looked at the details of the money, food and materials of Zhending Mansion concentrated in his hand, and sighed helplessly.
No matter how rich this place was, it is no longer useful.
It was only after he crossed over that he knew that there was still an ancient city in the land of Hebei that could be compared with the Daimyo's Mansion. One of the two is Hebei West Road Road and the other is Hebei East Road Road.
Even in terms of money and food, it is really better than the Daimyo's mansion.
This made Zhao Goutai unexpected.
In his previous life, he had no impression of a city at all, and the only impression he had of Zhending was Changshan Zhao Zilong in the late Han Dynasty, that is, Zhending people. I never thought that this 'small city' would have such a glorious time.
The world is fundamentally in Hebei, and Hebei is really determined, which is really not an empty talk. Just look at the garden where he lives now, how rich it must have been in its heyday.
Zhendingtan Garden, this is a garden that makes Ouyang Xiu, Shen Kuo and other celebrities and wise men linger and dream. And there is more than one pond garden in this place, there are dozens of large and small gardens.
It is conceivable that the place that can be evaluated by Shen Kuo as a miscellaneous master-level figure is 'the prosperity of the pond garden, the crown and the towns'.
In the first year of Jingkang, Li Miao, the envoy of Hebei West Road and the Zhizhen Dingfu, was tenacious and unyielding in the face of a strong enemy, recruited thousands of people to resist tens of thousands of Jin soldiers, insisted on fighting for more than 40 days, and Li Miao was captured in the city, and did not surrender on a hunger strike.
But it was also after this battle that the whole Zhending was like a delicate flower that was attacked by a storm and ravaged a lot.
On that day, Li Miao kept the truth, with less than 2,000 soldiers and less than 2 million money. The people trusted Li Miao, and within a few days, they got 130,000 yuan and 110,000 stones.
But now? Zhao Gou entered Zhending City, and in turn, he had to take a small number of military rations to gather the people in the town.
"it!" Zhao Gou rubbed his head with a headache, he knew that the time had come for him to have more headaches in the future. Because this military has come to an end, Jingkang's shame will no longer appear, and he will officially enter the internal governance from now on.
Through so far, Zhao Gou has solved the shame of Jingkang, resisted the Jin people and Zhao Huan, and has a huge prestige and good capital, which will lay a solid foundation in the future.
If he doesn't lay a good foundation, how can he prepare food and salary, reorganize his army to fight Yanyun, and arrange soldiers and horses to defend Bianliang?
